Washing
Proper washing is the foundation of your Pakkers' longevity.
- Wash trousers inside out at 30-40°C.
- Use gentle detergents, preferably eco-friendly.
- Avoid bleach and chlorine-containing products.
- Don't overload the washing machine – trousers need space.
- Fasten zippers and buttons before washing.
Drying
The way you dry has a big impact on the appearance and durability of the material.
- Dry trousers inside out – they retain color better.
- Avoid tumble dryers if you don't have to.
- Best to dry flat or on a hanger.
- Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause fading.
Ironing
If you like ironed trousers, here are some tips.
- Iron at about 150°C.
- Use plenty of steam – it makes ironing easier.
- Iron inside out to avoid shine.
- For linen and hemp you can use higher temperature.

Tips for specific materials
Cotton
Classic Pakkers are made from cotton with a weight of 300g/m². The fabric has a plain weave, meaning the fibers cross at 90-degree angles. The texture of such fabric is regular and smooth. This gives our trousers an elegant character. Classic has a universal character and works great both during physical activity and in situations requiring a certain degree of elegance. Practical in both summer and winter.
Linen
Linen Pakkers are made from 100% linen with a weight of 230g/m². If you look through them in the sunlight, they are transparent. Linen trousers are wonderful for a walk on the pier and a visit to a restaurant. Linen is the best material for summer because it has the ability to absorb water and gives a cool feeling on the skin. Besides, like all linen, it wrinkles. You have to love it, because there is nothing you can do about it.
Hemp
Hemp fabrics are often associated with coarse canvas, but that is not true! Trousers made from this material are light and soft. They have antiseptic properties and natural UV filters. The ability to absorb water means that these trousers work perfectly in both summer and winter.
Jeans/Denim
Jeans Pakkers are made from solid cotton with a twill weave and a weight of 350g/m². They are really solid and durable! Created for special tasks. The texture of jeans is uneven and palpable under the fingers. Jeans owe their stylish look and strong character to the diagonal arrangement of threads.
UltraLight
UltraLight trousers are made from canvas with a weight of 120g/m², consisting of 80% cotton and 20% polyester. Thanks to this blend, the material is more resistant to creasing, provides better ventilation and is more durable than pure cotton. This makes UltraLight trousers not only comfortable but also more durable, making them a more ecological choice. UltraLight trousers work great during hot days, ideal for walks and light physical activity.
Cotton Light
Cotton Light trousers combine the advantages of Cotton and Light models. The fabric has a canvas structure and a weight of 240g/m², which is less than in Classic series Pakkers. Here, the gaps between the warp and weft threads are larger, giving these trousers lightness and breathability.
Flannel
Flannel is a soft, brushed fabric (most commonly cotton or a cotton blend) that pills easily and loses its softness if washed incorrectly.
Ripstop
Pakkers Ripstop III – strong as a uniform, everyday freedom. Made from tear-resistant and breathable ripstop fabric. The black version has an additional hydrophobic coating that makes the material absorb water more slowly, is more resistant to light dirt and dries faster after getting wet. This impregnation maintains high effectiveness even after 50 washes.
Ripstop Light
Lightweight, durable trousers made from fabric used in Polish army summer uniforms. Made in Poland from NATO-compliant material. In Deep Green color, a special hydrophobic coating increases resistance to moisture and dirt. Thanks to this technology, the material absorbs water more slowly and dries much faster while maintaining fabric breathability.
Corduroy
Trousers made from thick 100% cotton corduroy (330 g/m²). Soft, heavy and pleasant – they wrap the leg like a blanket on cool days.
